DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
We have discovered that alkoxy aromatic amines having the structure of component (A) exhibit significantly long "effective ambient white lifetimes" when incorporated with small proportions of inhibitors having the structure of component (B) mixed with inhibitors having the structures of component (C), or the combination of components (C) and (D).
When exposed to excessive heat and light, and to air and metallic surfaces, amines having the structure of component (A), in time, undergo significant color formation progressing from very light yellow, to light yellow, to very light brown, to light brown, to brown, to deep brownish red. When the amines have surpassed the "very light brown" stage, they are generally unacceptable for many uses, particularly as intermediates for azo dyes and various industrial chemicals. Purification processes are, for the most part, prohibitively costly and impractical. The coordination of processes producing the amines on the one hand, and processes using them on the other, is also in many instances impractical, particularly when the producer is not the user.
The term effective ambient white lifetime, as employed herein, is the time needed for an amine, stored at the ambient temperature and exposed to air, to reach the very light brown stage of color formation.
Typical examples of component (A) include 2-methoxy-3-methyl aniline; 2-methoxy-5-methyl aniline; 2-methyl-4-methoxy aniline; 5-methyl-4-methoxy aniline; 2-methoxy-4-chloro aniline; 2-methoxy-6-chloro aniline; 2-chloro-4-methoxy aniline; 5-chloro-4-methoxy aniline; 2-ethoxy-5-methyl aniline; 2-ethoxy-5-ethyl aniline; 2-ethoxy-5-chloro aniline; 5-amino-o-cresol isopropyl ether; ortho-anisidine; and para-anisidine.
As presently understood, the progressive color formation in component (A) is caused by the formation of oxidation products resulting from its contact with air, and by its contact with various metals that catalyze the color formation mechanism. Excessive heat and light tend to increase the rate of the color forming reactions.
Component (B) acts primarily as an antioxidant, but in some instances also functions as a metal complexer. The concentration of component (B) in component (A) ranges from about 0.001 to about 0.20 percent by weight, and preferably from about 0.005 to about 0.02 percent. Typical examples of component (B) include 2-thiazoline-2-thiol; 2,5-dimercapto-1,3,4-thiadiazole; 5,5-dimethyl-2-thiazoline-2-thiol; 5,6-dihydro-4,6,6-trimethyl-1,3,4H-thiazine-2-thiol; and 2-mercapto benzothiazole.
Component (C) acts primarily as a metal complexer and when combined with mixtures of components (A) and (B) induces a synergistic effect extending the effective ambient white lifetime of the mixture of components (A), (B) and (C) beyond the sum of the lifetimes experienced by the mixtures of components (A) and (B), and (A) and (C). The concentration of component (C) ranges from about 0.001 to about 0.02 percent by weight of component (A), and preferably from about 0.005 to about 0.015 percent. Typical examples of component (C) include oxalic acid; aurintricarboxylic acid; citric acid; phthalic acid; nitrilotriacetic acid; pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid; succinic acid; tartaric acid; 1,2-diaminocyclohexane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid; and N'-(2-hydroxyethyl)ethylenediamine-N,N,N'-triacetic acid.
Metals effectively complexed by compounds having the structure of components (B) or (C) include silver, aluminum, barium, beryllium, calcium, cadmium, cerium, cobalt, copper, europium, iron II, iron III, lanthanum, magnesium, manganese, neodymium, nickel, lead, praseodymium, strontium, yitrium and zinc.
Component (D) acts primarily as an antioxidant and when combined with mixtures of components (A), (B) and (C) induces a synergistic effect extending the effective ambient white lifetime of the mixture of components (A), (B), (C) and (D) beyond the sum of the lifetimes experienced by the mixtures of components (A) and (B), and (A) and (C), and (A) and (D). The concentration of component (D) ranges from about 0.05 to about 0.5 percent by weight of component (A), and preferably from about 0.05 to about 0.2 percent. Typical examples of component (D) include hydrazine; methyl hydrazine; ethyl hydrazine; n-propyl hydrazine; isopropyl hydrazine; n-butyl hydrazine; sec-butyl hydrazine; iso-butyl hydrazine; tert-butyl hydrazine; 1,1-dimethyl hydrazine, 1-methyl-1-ethyl hydrazine; 1-methyl-1-isopropyl hydrazine; 1-methyl-1-isobutyl hydrazine; 1,1-ethyl hydrazine; 1-ethyl-1-isopropyl hydrazine; 1-ethyl-1-isobutyl hydrazine; 1,2-dimethyl hydrazine; 1-methyl-2-ethyl hydrazine; 1-methyl-1-isopropyl hydrazine; 1-methyl-2-isobutyl hydrazine; 1-ethyl-2-isopropyl hydrazine; 1-ethyl-2-isobutyl hydrazine; and 1-isopropyl-2-isobutyl hydrazine.
Not all inhibitors having the structure of components (B), (C) and (D) work equally effective with each compound having the structure of component (A). The particular inhibitors selected depend upon the particular amine with which they are to be employed, the degree of color inhibition required, and the environment to which the amine is to be exposed. For example, excessive light and high temperature enhance color formation and so under such conditions high concentrations of the inhibitors will be required. Also, contact with oxygen and various metals enhance color formation and accordingly, the extent of air exposure the amines are to receive, the type and composition of containers they are to be stored in, and the equipment they are to be processed with, effect the selection and concentration of the inhibitors.
Optimum inhibition is obtained by adding the inhibitors to the amine as soon as it is prepared. Where the amine is distilled, maximum inhibition will be obtained by distilling the amine into a receiver containing the inhibitors, thereby avoiding unnecessary contact with air. When operating the distillation process at sub-atmospheric pressures, however, this is not always possible, due to the volatility of some of the inhibitors; hydrazine, for example, must be added at atmospheric or near-atmospheric pressures. It should be understood that our inhibitors can also be added during the manufacture of the amines and, in particular, to crude amines before crystallization to inhibit color formation during drying.
The inhibitors can be added to amines in the liquid form by simply dissolving them. They can be added to amines in the solid form by melting the amine or dissolving it in an inert liquid and then mixing the inhibitors into the amine and dissolving them. If the inhibitors are not soluble in the amine to the extent desired, they can be added as a solution by first dissolving them in a suitable liquid solvent such as an alcohol or an ether.
The following example is intended to illustrate our invention and is not intended to limit or impair the scope of the claims.
EXAMPLE
Samples of crude para-cresidine (2-methoxy-5-methylaniline) were distilled at reduced pressures in the range of 14 to 16 mmHg absolute and at corresponding temperatures in the range of 123°C to 125°C to obtain nearly colorless, molten products for studying the prevention of color formation. The inhibitors were added in sufficient quantities to produce the indicated concentrations while the samples were stirred and maintained at temperatures in the range of about 55°C to 65°C and, except for hydrazine, at the above reduced pressures. Hydrazine, due to its volatility, was added at atmospheric pressure. Thereafter, the samples were flacked on stainless steel plates, deposited with air in sealed glass containers, exposed to sunlight at ambient temperatures, opened from time to time to admit fresh air, and observed for color change. The color progression ranged from white, to yellow, to very light brown, to light brown, to brown, to dark brown, to almost black. The effective ambient white lifetime was considered finished when the samples became very light brown.
Results of the foregoing tests are presented in the Table below. The inhibitor concentrations are expressed as weight percent of the para-cresidine.
